.SH "NAME"
profiles \- A utility to report and change SIDs in registry files
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\ 'u
profiles [\-c|\-\-change\-sid=STRING] [\-n|\-\-new\-sid=STRING] [\-v|\-\-verbose] [\-?|\-\-help] [\-\-usage] [\-d|\-\-debuglevel=DEBUGLEVEL] [\-\-debug\-stdout] [\-\-configfile=CONFIGFILE] [\-\-option=name=value] [\-l|\-\-log\-basename=LOGFILEBASE] [\-\-leak\-report] [\-\-leak\-report\-full] {FILE}
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This tool is part of the
\fBsamba\fR(7)
suite\&.
.PP
profiles
is a utility that reports and changes SIDs in windows registry files\&. It currently only supports NT\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
file
.RS 4
Registry file to view or edit\&.
.RE
.PP
\-v,\-\-verbose
.RS 4
Increases verbosity of messages\&.
.RE
.PP
\-c SID1 \-n SID2, \-\-change\-sid SID1 \-\-new\-sid SID2
.RS 4
Change all occurrences of SID1 in
file
by SID2\&.
.RE
.PP
\-d|\-\-debuglevel=DEBUGLEVEL
.RS 4
\fIlevel\fR
is an integer from 0 to 10\&. The default value if this parameter is not specified is 1 for client applications\&.
.sp
The higher this value, the more detail will be logged to the log files about the activities of the server\&. At level 0, only critical errors and serious warnings will be logged\&. Level 1 is a reasonable level for day\-to\-day running \- it generates a small amount of information about operations carried out\&.
.sp
Levels above 1 will generate considerable amounts of log data, and should only be used when investigating a problem\&. Levels above 3 are designed for use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log data, most of which is extremely cryptic\&.
.sp
Note that specifying this parameter here will override the
\m[blue]\fBlog level\fR\m[]
parameter in the
/etc/samba/smb\&.conf
file\&.
.RE
.PP
\-\-debug\-stdout
.RS 4
This will redirect debug output to STDOUT\&. By default all clients are logging to STDERR\&.
.RE
.PP
\-\-configfile=<configuration file>
.RS 4
The file specified contains the configuration details required by the client\&. The information in this file can be general for client and server or only provide client specific like options such as
\m[blue]\fBclient smb encrypt\fR\m[]\&. See
/etc/samba/smb\&.conf
for more information\&. The default configuration file name is determined at compile time\&.
.RE
.PP
\-\-option=<name>=<value>
.RS 4
Set the
\fBsmb.conf\fR(5)
option "<name>" to value "<value>" from the command line\&. This overrides compiled\-in defaults and options read from the configuration file\&. If a name or a value includes a space, wrap whole \-\-option=name=value into quotes\&.
.RE
.PP
\-l|\-\-log\-basename=logdirectory
.RS 4
Base directory name for log/debug files\&. The extension
\fB"\&.progname"\fR
will be appended (e\&.g\&. log\&.smbclient, log\&.smbd, etc\&.\&.\&.)\&. The log file is never removed by the client\&.
.RE
.PP
\-\-leak\-report
.RS 4
Enable talloc leak reporting on exit\&.
.RE
.PP
\-\-leak\-report\-full
.RS 4
Enable full talloc leak reporting on exit\&.
.RE
.PP
\-V|\-\-version
.RS 4
Prints the program version number\&.
.RE
.PP
\-?|\-\-help
.RS 4
Print a summary of command line options\&.
.RE
.PP
\-\-usage
.RS 4
Display brief usage message\&.
